Creation of an Orderly Jet and Thrust Generation in Quiescent Fluid from an Oscillating Two-dimensional Flexible Foil
(2018-02-22)In nature, many of the flapping wings and fins in swimming and flying animals have various degrees of flexibility with strong and coupled solid-fluid interactions between the structure and the fluid. In most cases, the ... -
Unsteady Two Dimensional Jet with Flexible Flaps at the Exit
(2017-11-13)The present thesis involves the study of introducing passive exit flexibility in a two dimensional starting jet. This is relevant to various biological flows like propulsion of aquatic creatures (jellyfish, squid etc.) and ...
